The Development of Porcine Models of Obesity and the Metabolic Syndrome ,
Open accessAbstract
Despite aggressive research aimed at understanding the myriad biochemical factors that are integrated to balance energy intake and expenditure to maintain normal body weight, obesity is increasing at an alarming rate, and the long-term success of prevention and intervention strategies is minimal. Because much of the scientific literature addressing obesity has originated with rodent models, there is considerable interest among researchers and funding agencies in the development of comparative animal models. Furthermore, numerous disparate results between rodent models and humans (i.e., adipsin, leptin, resistin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and other adipokines) have hindered the translation of rodent data into actionable technologies for humans. The pig is an exceptional restenosis model, and is emerging rapidly as a biomedical model for energy metabolism and obesity in humans because it is devoid of brown fat postnatally and because of their similar metabolic features, cardiovascular systems, and proportional organ sizes. This article highlights the current literature devoted to the development of porcine models for obesity and the metabolic syndrome, with a particular emphasis on the role of adipose tissue and adipokines in the regulation of energy balance and the inflammation associated with obesity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
